Last weekend, when Jack was walking in the park, he saw a woman, who lived a few miles away, sitting on a bench with a dog beside her. The dog was looking up at the woman.

Jack walked up to the woman and said, “Hello, Sue, how are you? May I sit and talk with you for a while?”

“Of course, please sit down,” Sue said.

Jack sat down next to Sue on the bench, and they talked quietly together. The dog continued to look up at Sue, as if waiting to be fed. “That’s a nice dog, isn’t he?” Jack said, pointing at the animal.

“Yes, he is. He’s handsome. He’s a bit of a mixture, but that’s not a bad thing. He’s strong and healthy.”

“And hungry,” Jack said. “He hasn’t taken his eyes off you. He thinks you’ve got some food for him.”

“That’s true,” Sue said. “But I haven’t.”

They both laughed and then Jack said, “Does your dog bite?”

“No,” Sue said. “He’s never bitten anyone. He’s always gentle and friendly.”

Hearing this, Jack decided to hold out his hand and touched the animal’s head. Suddenly it jumped up and bit him.

“Hey!” Jack shouted. “You said your dog didn’t bite.”

Sue replied in surprise. “Yeah, I did. But this is not my dog. My dog’s at home.”

Making friend is a skill. Like most skills, it improves with practice. If you want to meet people and make friends, you must be willing（樂意） to take some action. You must first go where there are people. You won’t make friends staying home alone.

Join a club or group, talking with those who like the same things you do is much easier. Or join someone in some activity. Many people are nervous when talking to new people. After all, meeting strangers means facing the unknown. And it’s human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable about the unknown.

Most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are giving an opinion about us-finding us too tall or too short, too this or too that. But don’t forget that they must be feeling the same away. Try to accept(接受)yourself as you are, and try to put the other person at ease(不拘束). You’ll both feel more comfortable.

Try to keep self-confident(自信)even when you don’t feel that way when you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk tall(趾高氣揚)and straight, look directly at other people and smile. If you see someone you’d like to speak to, say something. Don’t wait for the other person to start a conversation.

Just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person-friendship is based on each other’s liking and “give and take”. They take time and efforts to develop. And there are things that keep a new friendship from growing.

On a British Airways flight from Johannesburg, a middle-aged ,rich white South American lady found herself sitting next to a black man. She called the cabin stewardess(機艙乘務員)over to complain about her seating.

“What seems to be the problem, Madam?” asked the stewardess.

“Can’t you see?” she said. “You’ve sat me next to a black man. I can’t possibly sit next to this kind of human. Find me another seat!”

“Please calm down, Madam,” the stewardess replied. “The flight is very full today, but I’ll tell you what I’ll do---I

Will go and check to see if we have any free seats in Club(商務艙)or First Class.”

The lady had an unfriendly look at the outraged(被激怒的)black man beside her.

A few minutes later the stewardess returned and said to the lady with a self –satisfied smile, “I’m sorry, Madam, this Economy(經濟艙)is full, and Club is also full. However, we do have one seat in First Class.”

The lady could not help looking at the people around her. But before she had a chance to get up or make any answer, the stewardess continued , “ We seldom make this kind of upgrade(升級),however, and I had to report it to the captain(機長).When the captain heard this,he said that it was not proper to make someone sit next to such an obnoxious(令人討厭的)person.” Having said that, the stewardess turned to the black man sitting next to the lady, and said, “So if you’d like to get your things, sir, I have a seat ready for you…”

At this time, the people around stood up and clapped their hands. The black man walked up to the front of the plane.

That was an unforgettable flight for me, for I was the black man who had never flown First Class before.
